Indeed a remarkable move. Doesn't necessarily mean that European Council will opt for #ClimateNeutralEU 2050, but least set a concrete year. It will definetely shift the German climate policy debate, make it more ambitious and more pragmatic swp-berlin.org/en/publication… #PCD10
whether a certain EU or German target year is appropriate or not depends on

(2) fairness considerations (EU should of course be faster than global average, but how much?)
